Choose Vendorplan When Creating A Vendor Through Api

Store Builder in detail Issues & Troubleshooting
#1

Hi all!

Is it possible to choose an existing vendor plan when creating a vendor through the API? In the documentation I can not find any hints regarding this issue (https://docs.cs-cart.com/latest/developer_guide/api/entities/vendors.html#create-a-vendor).

I am running the CS Cart Multi Vendor Plus edition.

Looking forward to your answers!

Best regards

Hello

Did you try send PUT with params plan_id ?

Hi Robert,

thanks for that hint! It works!

Can I then state that the API documentation is incomplete in some cases?

And, second question: the two warnings I get can be ignored?

Hello

You can generally do updating all fields. It does not necessarily have to be described in the documentation.
As for the warning, it looks like you did not provide an email address when creating the vendor. You can complete this with the PUT method.

Hi Robert,

understood!

Regarding the warnings:

This is how I create the vendor:

POST https://example.com/api/vendors/

{
  "company": "Test Company",
  "status": "A",
  "company_description": "",
  "storefront": "api",
  "email": "test_company@example.com",
  "phone": "555555555",
  "url": "http://example.com",
  "fax": "+555555555",
  "address": "Street 5",
  "city": "New York",
  "state": "NY",
  "country": "US",
  "zipcode": "00000"
}

This is how I update the vendor:

PUT https://example.com/api/vendors/227/

{
  "plan_id": "2"
}

Nevertheless I get these warnings as described above. Any ideas?

Best regards

Hello

1. Check if the admin vendor was created after adding the vendor.

2. In PUT add field email.

Best regards
